Hi,
i tried to get 9front on vmm by first installing on qemu into a qcow2,
then rebooted, edited plan9.ini to set monitor=none and console=0 b115200.
In qemu the image starts up nicely and gives me a shell.
With
vmctl start -c 9front
the last thing printed is
bootfile=9pc64
bootargs=local!/dev/sd00/fscache
monitor=none
boot
And then Silence.
Searching the web suggests that several people succeeded. But how??
Best regards
Matthias

OpenBSD 6.7 (I assume you are running this version) has a few bugs that
9front exposes pretty quickly [1]. These bugs were recently corrected
(and will be in 6.8). You can also install without doing the qemu dance!
